Becca Dodd

Becca qualified from Nottingham Vet School in Summer 2018, since then she’s worked in mixed practice on the Shropshire/Wales border so is used to the rain!

Having completed a degree in animal science pre vet school she has a particular interest in herd/flock health and looking forward to doing more of this as part of the team at LLM

Emily Moule

Emily’s first became interested in the world of farm vetting by spending time on her grandparents beef and sheep farm in Mid Devon. This led her to spend 5 amazing years in Bristol studying Veterinary Science and graduating as a vet this summer. Whilst in Bristol she was part of a local church and enjoyed spending time socializing with her friends, typically over a pint of cider, as well as numerous weekends down in Devon lambing on her grandparents farm. She’s super excited to make the move up here to Lancashire from her home in Oxford and looks forward to meeting lots of new faces out and about on farm.

Rebecca Riley

After a few years at vet school down south at the University of Surrey, She’s excited to have just graduated and to be moving back up north to her roots in Lancashire. Having grown up around the farming industry she has always had a keen interest in farm work and can’t wait to get stuck in. After spending a number of weeks on placement at LLM during her time at vet school, it’s great to now be a part of the team and Becca is really looking forward to seeing some familiar faces as well as meeting lots of new people when she’s out on farm. In her spare time she enjoys playing netball as well as hill walking in the Lancashire countryside, especially if there’s a pub lunch as a reward at the end of a long walk!

Dimitris Karagiannidis

Dimi joined the vet team in Lancs last year, so belated welcome to the team! My passion for production animals was expressed from my childhood when I used to milk sheep and goats for making ‘’Feta’’ cheese with my grandparents in Greece. After my graduation in 2014, I worked as a full time farm vet on a dairy farm of 250 milking cows. Then, I relocated to the UK to join a farm only animal practice down in Cornwall. Now, I am pleased to be part of the LLM team and enjoy working with family run farms in Lancashire, where a can apply my areas of particular interest such as fertility, nutrition and pathology.
